I Won't Be a Burden to You
The next day after Qiao Qiao found out that Adam and Hongyan were safe and sound, the two of them returned.
This time, Qiao Qiao immediately noticed that the atmosphere between the two of them had changed.
Hongyan always had a silly smile on her face that she could not hide. Adam looked at her with such a gentle gaze that it was almost sickening. Compared to two days ago, it was a world of difference.
"You guys …"
Qiao Qiao walked over. Her gaze swept back and forth between Adam and Hongyan. She revealed an ambiguous smile and asked, "Have you guys made up?"
Hongyan giggled foolishly. "Yeah."
Adam rubbed Hongyan's head. His lips curved into a gentle smile as he said, "I want to try dating this girl. Lilith, perhaps you're right. I shouldn't be too concerned about the past."
Qiao Qiao heard Adam's words and was so happy that she almost clapped her hands. She said, "Adam, you won't regret it. Ah Yan is a good girl. She's very suitable for you."
"Hehe …"
Hongyan smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Actually, I'm not that good either. Hehe …"
"I still have some things to settle." Adam said. Before Hongyan could nod, he added, "I'll get someone to move your luggage into my room."
Hongyan and Qiao Qiao's eyes widened when they heard this.
The luggage was moved into Adam's room!
"Ah Yan, tell me honestly. The night before yesterday, and last night, what exactly happened between you and Adam? Why did he suddenly think it through? "
Hongyan thought of the crazy scene last night and her face turned red.
"Well …"
"Tell me. I won't tell anyone. Tell me, are you and Adam already …"
That incident was not hard to imagine. Adam was drugged that night. A man and a woman were alone in a room. It was common for a man and a woman to have sex. Moreover, Qiao Qiao had always thought that Adam had feelings for Hongyan. It was just that he was too immersed in the past, so he had always been repulsed by the relationship between men and women.
It seemed that reasonable bed exercise was still helpful in promoting the relationship between a man and a woman.
Qiao Qiao held Hongyan's hand and gave her blessings. "Ah Yan, you'll definitely be very happy with Adam. He is a very considerate person. If he wants to pamper you, he will definitely pamper you to heaven."
Hongyan still had a surreal feeling. She felt as if she was standing on the clouds. She didn't feel grounded.
She had never thought that things would go so smoothly with Adam's.
However, Qiaoqiao's blessings still made her feel very warm.
"Thank you, Qiaoqiao."
At night.
Hongyan subconsciously returned to her room and found nothing. Only then did she remember that all her things had been moved to Adam's room.
She was a little embarrassed.
Did she really have to move over?
Clearly, the two of them had done the most intimate thing in the world, but Hongyan still felt awkward living together. Therefore, she still hid in her room, hoping to muddle through.
The heater was turned on in the room and it was warm.
Hongyan read a magazine for a while and fell asleep in a daze.
In the middle of the night, she was in a daze. She felt that she was leaning against a "stove" and it was a little hot.
She stretched out her hand and wanted to push the "stove" away. The firm touch woke Hongyan up from her sleep. She suddenly opened her eyes and an excessively handsome face appeared in front of her. Hongyan was so shocked that she immediately sat up.
Adam!
Adam was a light sleeper. When Hongyan moved, he woke up.
Seeing that Hongyan's mouth was wide open in shock, he couldn't help but laugh and ask, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me with that expression? "
"Ya …
Adam … You, why are you here? "
"Is it strange that I'm in my own room?"
Adam asked back.
Only then did Hongyan realize that this was not her room.
"Didn't you say that you would come over to sleep tonight? Why did you fall asleep in the room over there? When I went over, I saw that you didn't even cover yourself with a blanket. What if you caught a cold? "
Adam's tone had a hint of reproach.
"I fell asleep by accident …"
Hongyan retorted softly.
Adam poked Hongyan's forehead and said helplessly, "You … Why are you like a child?"
Hongyan's heart was beating very fast. She stammered, "Adam, I still think … Aren't we developing too fast? We haven't even dated … If … If we sleep together, it won't be a good influence, right? "
"Then let's get married now?"
Adam proposed a solution.
Hongyan was glad that she didn't drink water. Otherwise, she would have spat it out.
She coughed violently. Her eyes widened and she quickly shook her head.
"No … No …"
"Then do you care about other people's opinions?"
Adam asked again.
Hongyan continued to shake her head.
"Then what do you have to worry about?"
Hongyan didn't know how to answer. Adam propped himself up. He stretched out his long hand and pulled Hongyan into his arms. His fingers ran through her smooth hair. He kissed her forehead and said, "I'm here. You don't have to worry about anything. I'll take care of everything."
Adam's words were very reassuring.
Hongyan's rapidly beating heart also seemed to calm down.
They lay on the bed. Hongyan curled up in Adam's arms and said in a muffled voice, "Adam, why did you choose me? My looks are above average and my personality isn't good. I'm also rash. You're so outstanding. Why did you fall for me? "
Although Qiao Qiao had always emphasized that Adam had feelings for her, Hongyan didn't know why Adam liked her.
She really wasn't outstanding.
Hongyan knew her own limitations.
Adam paused for a moment and then said honestly, "You do have many shortcomings. You're rash and always pessimistic. You look carefree, but you're not good at socializing. You're also very stubborn. Once you've decided on something, even nine bulls can't pull you back. You don't have good taste in clothes, you don't know palace etiquette, you can't even speak J Country well …"
Hongyan: "…"
So in Adam's eyes, she had so many shortcomings …
Her mood instantly became complicated.
Then what was it about her that made him like her?
At this moment, Adam changed the topic and said, "But to me, you're very dazzling."
Adam was someone who belonged to the dark side.
Not only because he used to work in the J Organisation, but also because his heart was dark. In fact, he was an extremely selfish and cruel person. He would do anything to achieve his goals. He treated people he didn't care about as if they were plants on the street. He didn't care about them at all.
But Hongyan was the complete opposite.
The organization she was in was similar to his. They also specialized in dirty work. But she had always maintained a pure heart.
If he met someone like Madam Hong, he would definitely not do his best to protect her son. He would destroy the most important thing to that woman bit by bit and make her regret provoking him.
But Hongyan wasn't like that.
Even if Madam Hong was so mean, she had a good relationship with Hong Xun. She was very clear about who was good to her and who was bad to her.
This was something Adam couldn't do.
She didn't know when, but more and more gazes fell on her. Adam knew that her heart was gradually falling.
People in the dark would always yearn for sunshine.
It was as if he was trekking and had found his direction.
It was as if he had met the sun in the cold winter.
Because he didn't have it, he wanted to touch it.
…
"Ah Yan, I'll bring you somewhere."
Adam suddenly said.
Hongyan had nothing to do and was bored. When she heard Adam say that, she nodded happily. "Sure."
She thought that Adam was bringing her on a date. She didn't expect that the place he drove to was getting more and more remote. Finally, they arrived at a cemetery.
Hongyan then realized that Adam was wearing a black suit today. His expression was also very solemn. Could it be that there was someone he knew here?
Hongyan started to guess who Adam was bringing her to see.
They walked up the stairs.
The whole mountain was filled with tombstones. They walked until they were almost halfway up the mountain. Adam asked, "Are you tired?"
Hongyan shook her head. "I'm not tired."
For Hongyan who had undergone special training, this height wasn't considered training. It was just a warm-up.
Adam looked at Hongyan with gentleness in his eyes. "We'll be there soon. Hold on a little longer."
"Okay."
Hongyan nodded.
Finally, they walked to the top of the mountain. Hongyan looked down the mountain. The car had become as small as an ant.
"This way."
Adam said.
"Oh, okay."
Hongyan hurried to keep up with Adam's pace. They walked past tombstones and stopped at a tombstone with fresh flowers. This tombstone was a little different from the others because there were two names on it.
Eve and Phillips were written on it.
"Eve, let me introduce you. This child is Hongyan. I've decided to let go of the past and treat her well. Will you give me your blessings?"
Adam put down the flowers and said calmly.
Hongyan looked at the charming woman in the photo. She only felt that this woman was really beautiful.
Was she someone Adam liked?
Or did she have a deep relationship with Adam?
Hongyan was speculating about the relationship between Adam and Eve when Adam said directly, "Eve used to love me very much. She was very persistent like you. She also did a lot of things for me. So much that I can't repay her in this lifetime …"
Adam looked at Eve's photo and continued, "But I let her down. Between Lilith and her, I chose Lilith. Then she died."
Hongyan's heart skipped a beat.
"Heh, actually her death has nothing to do with me. But I think that if I paid more attention to her, if I cared more about her, she wouldn't have died."
"Ah Yan, do you know why I don't want to accept you?" Adam looked at Hongyan and said, "I'm afraid of repeating the same mistakes. Just like I said to you before, if Lilith is in danger again, if I really have to choose between you and Lilith, I will still choose Lilith without hesitation."
"Oh, I know."
Hongyan knew in her heart that protecting Qiao Qiao was Adam's mission. She said, "I will understand. I already understand this matter very well. You don't have to repeat it. If I really encounter that kind of situation, I will understand."
"Really? You're so considerate, Ah Yan. "
With that, Adam stood up and walked to Hongyan's side. He then tapped Hongyan's forehead and said, "So, I will treat you twice as well. I will make you the happiest woman in the world. Is that okay?"
Ah Yan blinked and smiled. "I don't need you to treat me twice as well. If we really encounter that kind of situation, it doesn't matter if you save Qiao Qiao because I will definitely do my best to save myself. I will definitely not be a burden to you."
Adam smiled knowingly. "You're so reliable, Ah Yan."
